Case study: A case of traction – follow up part 2

At the NEG/Independents Day conference in November 2016, Heidelberg Engineering scanned three real patients from optometrist Peter Waite’s practice, KG Miles in Birmingham.

All the patients were scanned live on the big screen using the Spectralis Imaging Platform and were assessed for both retinal disease and glaucoma.

Their cases were presented in Optician and follow-up examinations were subsequently performed on these patients at Optrafair 2017.

A case study is presented below in the second of a three-part series examining how each of the patients has progressed.
